In the UK, the S10+ is powered by Samsung's own Exynos 9820 chipset while in other regions, such as the US, Qualcomm's latest and greatest Snapdragon 855 processor acts as the device's brains.

Both versions of the product scored extremely well on Geekbench, a benchmarking platform that analyses the internal components of devices and awards a final score based on performance.

Because smartphones have multiple cores inside that vary in terms of purpose and clock speed, Geekbench grants a tally for smartphone single-core performance in addition to multi-core capabilities.

For the Galaxy S10, models with the Exynos processor inside faired the best for single-core but Qualcomm's offering came out on top where multi-core was concerned.

Here is a breakdown of the Galaxy S10+'s Geekbench scores:

Single-core

• Galaxy S10+ powered by the Exynos 9820 - 4,312

• Galaxy S10+ powered by the Snapdragon 855 - 3,429

Multi-core

• Galaxy S10+ powered by the Exynos 9820 - 9,890

• Galaxy S10+ powered by the Snapdragon 855 - 10,640

While both models of the South Korean product fair extremely well according to Geekbench's rankings, it appears they have been defeated by the figures offered by the forthcoming OnePlus 7 Pro, at least in terms of multi-core performance.

Geekbench recently posted the test figures for a OnePlus device that was claimed to have 12GB of RAM and be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 855.

These are the expected internals for what is presumed to be the top-tier variant of the 7 Pro.

Moreover, the page also iterated the OnePlus hardware will come with Google's Android 9 Pie operating system pre-installed.

The Chinese product was handed a single-core score of 3,551 and a multi-core number of 11,012.

This figure defeats both flavours of the Galaxy S10+ where multi-core performance is concerned.

Moreover, the hardware also trumped the Snapdragon 855 S10+ for singe-core performance.

The device did not oust the Exynos model of the S10+ in this area.

Geekbench's tally for the OnePlus device suggests, as is the case with many of the firm's recent flagships, the 7 Pro will place its performance on a pedestal.

The OnePlus 7 Pro is anticipated to be a more premium model of the hardware that will be unveiled alongside the standard OnePlus 7 and the OnePlus 7 Pro 5G at the OEM's forthcoming launch event on May 14.

In addition to powerful internal components, the OnePlus 7 Pro has also been rumoured to come with an all-screen design and a triple-camera system on its rear.
